SonderjyskE will test the resolve of Silkeborg IF on Sunday as they bring a very different tactical approach to the game than the home side. Thomas Noergaard’s side, who have been in charge since January 2023, have been very pragmatic and results-oriented in recent weeks, setting up to defend with numbers and then counter-attacking with pace and directness. In contrast, Silkeborg IF are a possession-based, high-pressing side who like to dominate the ball and build up their attacks from the wide areas. Anders Klynge, the midfield dynamo, has been the provider of three assists in his side’s last five Superliga games and his side are very good at maintaining pressure on the opposition with their passing and movement.

It will be interesting to see if coach Kent Nielsen, who has been in charge since June 2019, rotates the squad or changes his approach for this crucial league game. SonderjyskE are third in the Superliga 2024/2025 table with 31 points from 29 games, but Silkeborg IF are the runaway leaders with 43 points from the same number of games, so they are the better side and should have enough to edge this one. However, with both sides drawing frequently, the Both Teams to Score market could be the best way to get some value out of this game. Callum McCowatt has been in fine form for Silkeborg IF with three goals in his last seven Superliga games. Lirim Qamili has been in fine form for SonderjyskE with three goals in his last five Superliga games, putting him level at the top of the club’s scoring charts.
